mcclaine Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 Looks like most films were down a fair amount yesterday. Wide (1000+) # Title Thu, Mar. 27 2014 Locations Avg. Total Wks. Dist. 1 Divergent $3,068,363 -7% 3,936 -- $780 $68,760,008 1 Lionsgate / Summit 2 Mr. Peabody & Sherman $1,006,247 -6% 3,607 -344 $279 $85,408,813 3 Fox / DreamWorks Animation 3 Non-Stop (2014) $500,650 -15% 2,945 -238 $170 $81,080,175 4 Universal 4 Son of God $241,878 -13% 2,139 -851 $113 $56,790,742 4 Fox 5 Tyler Perry’s The Single Moms Club $204,271 -13% 1,896 0 $108 $13,878,105 2 Lionsgate Limited (100 — 999) # Title Thu, Mar. 27 2014 Locations Avg.

That's 25.8% of the OW. Way too low comparing Twilight (23.7M / 34% of the OW). It's almost on the same page as The Hunger Games (24.5% of the OW), but THG had a massive OW, so that was logical. Very disappointing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ando918 Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 I don't get the Twilight comparisons now when looking at Divergent's potential multiplier. Divergent is doing decently with males and people over 25, and has decent reviews from audiences. Let's look at other action movies with male leads in March that might be a better comparison.

mcclaine Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 Still, % wise is below last year's The Host (35.8%), GI Joe 2 (28.4%) and Oz.(29.9%) It is doing ok, but i thought it would be doing better this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ando918 Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 (edited) I think Divergent will surprise and do 26 million this weekend. Noah gets 33, Divergent gets 26. Edited March 28, 2014 by Ando918 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcclaine Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 I think Divergent will surprise and do 26 million this weekend. that's exactly the math i was doing this morning... Friday +180 Saturday +32 Sunday -4026.6M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitik Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 So as a last second Over/Under $40M for Noah guess, what do you think right now? I'm thinking Over right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Divergent is doing exactly what it's supposed to do this week. There's nothing surprising about any of the four days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 6.95 9.2 5.7 22-24 mill looks doable. Anything more than that would be very surprising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TLK Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 I'm surprised there's no Friday numbers yet. Guru tweeted mid-30s to high-30s for Noah based on very early trends but that was a couple of hours ago so it was extremely early. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spizzer Posted March 28, 2014 Share Posted March 28, 2014 I'm surprised there's no Friday numbers yet. Definitely. 7:30PM on the East Coast? We typically get some BS estimates by 2-3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ando918 Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 (edited) Something that is somewhat impressive is that as of now Divergent is still at 17% on Movietickets.com - Hollywood executives still ignore the female audience too much. Look at the main characters in the theaters now - Noah, Kermit and Walter, Mr. Peabody, Liam Neeson, Need for Speed, Lego Movie, Sabotage, etc. and look at how many of them are males. Then add Captain America and Draft Day to the mix, too. Edited March 29, 2014 by Ando918 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
